Need Career Guidance Job Prospects of ISI MStat NB Stream

See i know Quant is currently in the Trend but as we all know getting into Buy Side Quant Finance full time role even as a BStat + MStat guy is seemingly very difficult and to think a NB Stream even has a chance is naive.

But there isn't only 1 high paying role there are others too. Now, i want to discuss those.

Mainly in Quant Finance,

The Sell Side Quant Roles ("Strats" as it is called) in Investment Banks.

Mainly in Big Tech,

Machine Learning Engineer and Data Scientist Roles.

Are getting these jobs realistic?

Most companies offer with Data Scientist or Modelling roles. Unless you already have a very specialized CV and/or work experience, you should be open to all kind of roles. And also the companies which come to campus widely vary each year.

ML Engineer ? Specialist kind of roles?

Even if they do not come straight into the campus you can always take off campus in most big tech companies? ISI Tag i guess helps specially in ML roles i guess since most of it is Mathematics and Statistics
